I Googled common answers to this uncomfortable question: "Why, what's up?" or "Why do you ask?" or "It all depends.." I'm apparently not alone in being unwilling to answer until they reveal their purpose. She has not proposed spending Thanksgiving together--that's your expectation. I've been bitten by expectations before. It's very possible, but it's also possible she wants wants to know if you're moving on or moping at home waiting for her, or to send you the kids so you can attend another event.
